If you ever worked for tips, you would have a different mindset. I always tip! If the service is poor my tip will indicate it.  ;)

Agreed on the tips thing, you may want to double check what they're actually earning because it's ridiculously low and without tips they'd starve, especially since as Urufu said, it's split up amongst the other employees. 

As for scent: Birds (with a few exceptions) can't smell even as good as a human does.  (that's why owls are one of the few animals that will hunt and eat skunks)  As for the carbon blocking electromagenetic waves, it would be interesting to see how/if it works!

Waitresses here get $2.13 as well. I'm really tight with my money, but if I'm going out to eat, I plan on a healthy tip. If I don't feel like tipping well, I won't go out :). I've not tipped twice in my life and it was for super extreme rude behavior.

I'm really into the magnetic field thing, but I don't know if I'm buying this magnetic suit stuff ;). Regardless, hoping you get your gobbler!

May as well grab a cross-gun, range finder and scouting drone while your at it........

I can shun you more, only if you need more :)

Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

federal minimum is 7.25, the reason that minimum for waiters/waitresses is because under federal law "The American federal government requires a wage of at least $2.13 per hour be paid to employees that receive at least $30 per month in tips."

also "If wages and tips do not equal the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour during any pay period, the employer is required to increase cash wages to compensate. As of May 2012, the average hourly wage – including tips – for a restaurant employee in the United States that received tip income was $11.82."

ide like to add that where i live  "the minimum wage for wait staff is $9.32, the average wage is $13.25 after gratuity" which honestly does NOT seem that fair compared to other places out there.

so if your waiter friends are not getting the federal minimum wage of 7.25 per hour when they add up their tips, they are entitled to a pay increase.


on topic, i didnt think carbon would be capable of blocking an electric field that the body emits like that, if thats true then THAT is the future of hunting clothing.

What you said ^. My little sister worked at the bbq place and made more then I did on the construction crew at 10 an hour.

But I think if it works it'll be the next great thing for wildlife photography. Could you imagine the kinds of pictures you could get? I've always thought my jeans and t-shirt were good enough. Then I got a ghille and that thing is king for getting you in close on the weary deer and turkey around here. Which, we don't have a lot of and our flocks are small. So when you guys talk about shooting so many at once, kinda unfair cause we have tiny groups of 3 wandering. Biggest group in the area I've found is 100-200 birds. HUGE flock. Only issue is they practically live up at the pig farmers eating all of their "bi-products". But usually seeing a flock of 10 or so in a field is about right.
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.

I'll let you borrow the suit if you let me film you creeping up on a bear.
